New things are afoot

Hello everybody,

I've just posted an article (about) on WPF development on the Telerik forums. I will repost it as a single comprehensive article on this blog during this month, but I'd like to put a copy of the code discussed on the forum here for everybody to get.

hmmm... oh dear. I cannot seem to add attachments to this blog post.

Debt Management System released

Its been a few months since my last blog, our dev team has been very busy rolling out new changes to the Genesis Smart Client Framework (will be on codeplex soon, look out for release 1.51.1024.0) and to an existing system that we had.

The existing system is a Debt Counselling system that helps alleviate the financial burden on debtors and by paying creditors in a predictable and reliable fashion. The system was initially developed for Voluntary Distribution, however over time has grown and now supports Garnish Order Alleviation, Judgement Order Rescision and the National Credit Act of South Africa (www.ncr.org.za).

The Hilts Debt Counselling system (www.hilts.co.za) runs on the Genesis Smart Client Framework as a platform to deliver an always-up-to-date application experience to our users.
